I am sure you can do a "hard" reset on it, but these are different per model/manufacturer. I would say go to the manufacturer's website and search for such a thing... and if you get nothing there try www.google.com

Hi
There is no way to recover from a forgotten password using the standard MS password security.
You must reset the the device - a Hard reset normally requires you push the buttons on the front while pushing the stick in the soft rest button and holding until the screen goes blank.
If you need any more help - e-mail me philip.crompton@newmediasecurity.com
If you want I will give you some proper encryption and password software for your PDA which we make - as long as it is for home use.
It has a password recovery system as well.
